a lot of times within religion, people who leave the faith they once believed in are deemed "lost," as if they are the ones confused and those within the faith not. but why does this have to be the case? even if i were to leave the lds church completely, and not believe in it, for the rest of my life i would battle the feeling that i have erred or gone astray. is this because i truly have, or because it is the only thing i have known for the first 25 years of my life, so thus developed feelings and emotions tied with certain issues? i think that is the toughest question to answer. and not even fully dealing with religion, but with everything. the question of if what i am doing is what i truly want and right for me. it is a hard one to face, and even harder to live with once convinced of the right path.
